We flew to North Carolina on Friday morning and this was Alli's first plane ride and she did great!!! She slept for the first 2 hours and then the last 30 minutes she lookrd out the window with Daddy and drank from her Dora cup! No crying!!! Then we were off to the rehearsal and dinner where we got to see the rest of the family!
Then on Saturday Mackenzie and Brad got married!!! As we were getting ready for the wedding cousin Lucy decided to start a microwave fire!!! Yes, really a fire! She put crackers with the wrapper in the microwave and turned the dial before anyone saw and the next thing the room was filled with smoke and the fire alarm was going off (we weren't in the hotel so we didn't get the full experience but it was to funny not to mention). It was a beautiful wedding and everyone looked great!!! Allison did not want to sit still or be quiet (she likes to talk!) so we got to watch the wedding through the back doors of the Church. Then at the reception (which was also beautiful) Alli wanted to dance dance dance. But since the dance floor was outside I didn't want her to fall and get hurt so she just danced with Daddy! She only liked it for the first minute or so and then she wanted to dance on her own, so needless to say she was not happy when we had to stop dancing. She must get her love of dance from her cousin Logan... he was on the dance floor doing the Macarena and the Superman and was the best one out there!
Then on Sunday we went to Aunt Mackenzie's parents house for lunch and to watch them open presents! They got some really good stuff that will come in handy in New York and soon Texas!!!
Then we left early Monday morning and same thing on the flight. Alli slept for over 2 hours and then the last 15 minutes she played! No crying!!!!
It was so fun to be with all of Scott's family and be there as Brad and Mackenzie start a new life together and to see all the family that came in from Illinois!! Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Bradley Payne!!! Welcome to the family Aunt Mackenzie!!
